PRORESIVE CLUB HEARS OF CONSERVATION Members o f the Progressive club, at their first 1947 meeting held at the Old Mill Camp on Monday even­ ing, heard David C. Bradfut£, mem­ ber of the state conservation com­ mission, give a very interesting talk on the functions o f that group. Mr, Bradfute pointed out that the commission has the following func­ tions: 1. Research 2. Management 3. Enforcement 4. Education 5. Management of part o f the state parks. President C. C, Brewer appointed the following committees for the year: Nelson, Rev* Jamieson. Flower — Charles Townsley, Bob Rural—AJ3. Evans, Dr. Kennon, Ross Wiseman. , , , , Education — Mandell E. Beattie, Walter W, Boyer, Ira D, Vayhing- er. Religion — Rev. Collier, Rev. Jamieson, Rev. Waide. Industrial—Thurman Miller, Jr., Charles Duvali, A* W. Creswetl. Program-t-Dr. Kennon, Homer Cul- tice, Charles Hubert. It was brought to the attention o f the club by Rev. Waide, new scout­ master, that the Scouts did not have enough meeting room at the town­ ship budding. Charles Ruberi gave them permission to nse the garage to the rear o f the township building for the meetings o f both Boy and Girl Scouts. It was decided by the members o f the group to hold a membership drive at the February meeting. R. C. Frederick reported that the committee appointed at the December meeting to investigate the possibility o f purchasing the old railroad build­ ing on South Main street had been unable to accomplish anything. A, W. Creswell reported to the club that there was a posibility o f obtain­ ing two new industries in the com­ munity.

Once the vandals are caught iminating national defense and tax refund costs, Mr. Truman proposed spending 9.72 billion dollars more in 194S than in 1916—the last war' year. Another amazing feature of the President’s budget message was his proposal to have at the end: o f the 1948 fiscal year—a year from next June 30th—two million one hundred thousand civilian employees on the Federal payroll—more than twice as many as in 1939, the last: These estates weie appraised: William Howard Manor—gross value, $2,425.10, deductions, $3- 357.64; net value, nothing, C.
